The Energy Policy and Planning Office (EPPO) has endorsed measures to help cushion the impact of rising petrol and gas prices resulting from the ongoing Russia-Ukraine war, Energy Ministry permanent-secretary Kulit Sombatsiri said on Thursday.

Retail prices of all petrol types will be cut by Bt1 per litre from December 26 to January 10 next year, following a resolution of the Oil Fund's administration committee on Wednesday (December 25) to lower contributions to the fund.
